IMPROVEMENT IN EGG-BEATERS.

The Schedule referred to in `these Letters Patent and making peut of the same.

To all whom 'it may concern.-

Be it known that I, DANIEL M. Swan'rz, of Lewisburg, in the county ot' Union and State ot Pennsyli'ania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Egg-Boaters; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof', which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing forming part of this specification.

This invention has for its object improvement in egg-beaters, and consists in an adjustable plate, for supporting the operating parts, in combination with a clamping device for attaching the apparatus to vessels of' different sizes, and also in a beater-shaft, combined with arms. attached to a tubular extension of said shaft.

Figure l isa sectional elevation of a vessel with my improved beater' attached, and showing the shaft ot' the latter partly sectioned.

Figure 2 is a plan view of the beater.

The support for the operating parts consist-s of a long wire or cast metal or other rod, A, bent double, and arranged for the most part so as to constitute two parallel guides for the frame of the Said operating parts.

The end ot each is bent outward and downward, to hoot: under or against the upper edge of the vessel, as shown at B, and near the bend G, where the wire is doubled, is a clamp, consisting of a cap, E, at the top, and a plate, F, below, both having selnicircular grooves inthe faces coming together for the reception of the rod A, and the plate F, having brackctsG, is clamped to the said rods by a screw, H, in such a way that the said clamp may be moved up snugly against the side ot' the vessel at the top, opposite the hooks B, and constitute, together with them, three points of attachment, which will pl'event the support from moving oi the top laterally.

The driving-wheel I, the pinion K, and spindle L are mounted on a plate, M, ttted with grooves or grooved projections on the under side, for reception ot' the rod A, to slide back and forth thereon, and be clamped to them at any point by theciamping-plate M and screw O, so that the spindle, to which the beaters are4 connected, may be adjusted to the required pointy on the frame, to be brought to the center of the vessel.

The beaters Q are attached to a hollow square or other angularshaped tube, I,l which is connected to the spindle L by slipping snuglyover the I'claim as new and desire to'secure bv Letters Patenti. rlhe arms Q, tube P, und spindle L, provided with the square cud It, all constructed and arranged as shown and described.

2. The supporting plate M, in combination with the wheels and spindles, and fitted to the support A for adjustment thereon, and to he. clamped thereto, substantially as specified.

3. The improved egg-beater, formed ofthe support A B E F, plate M, wheel 1, pinion K, spindle L, tube i I, and arms Q, all constructed and arranged to operatc as specified. i). M. SWAR'IZ. Witnesses:
